In this week leading up to Music Midtown, we’ll spotlight a handful of artists worth catching at the festival on Sept. 16-17 at Piedmont Park.

With the big weekend only a day away, it seems an apt time to spotlight the festival's four headliners - Bruno Mars (Saturday at 9:30 p.m.), Blink-182 (Saturday at 9:30 p.m.), Future (Sunday at 8:30 p.m.) and Mumford & Sons (Sunday at 8;30 p.m.).

Don't forget to check The Music Scene blog all weekend for recaps, photos and videos of Music Midtown 2017.
